WHEEL NOTES.

THOMAS STEVENS has taken to the
lecture fed.
SEVERAL RIDERS will change from the
crank to the Star this year.
We hope to see several ladies riding
tricycles IN this city ere the leaves begin
to turn.
CHARLIE JOHNSON rode up Arsenal
Hill on his 48-inch Star six times in sue
cession recently.
WHEELMEN WHO have not taken a
spin down the State Road lately should
do so. 1t is in fine riding condition.
CAPTAIN ANGEL will ride machine
called the New Rapid this season. 1t is
simply a new make of the ordinary
crank bicycle.
EVANS & SPENCER are going in for a
boom on the various makes of wheels
they have agency for, especially the
Victor and American Champion.
THERE will be an immense boom in
all kinds of cycles the present yeaR
There is over one million dollars worth
now stored ready for sale in the United
States.
GENTLE reader, do you notice how
many young boys are riding bicycles
Does it ever occur to you that this fact
shows (which way the wind blows 2"

THE EXPERT Columbia which was
ridden b. Thomas Stevens in his tour
around the world, is now on exhibition
in B. w. Currier & Co.'S window on
Washington Street Boston, Mass. IL.
Il. W. Bulletin.
CORONER TAYLOR has concluded to
have his patent bicycle treadles put on
machine of the Star. paterH, that is,
with small wheel in front. This will
no doubt, be great improvement for
racing bicycles. 81
THERE will be very few improvements
made in the manufacture of bicycles
this season. The principal ones VIZ be
the addition of ballbearing head, spade
handles, and in some instances a return
to direct spokes.
PEMBROKE has been appointed agent
for the Star bicycle in place of Barnes
81 Davis. The latter firm retain the
agency of the celebrated Columbia,
than which no crank bicycle holds
better all round record.
A MOVEMENT is being made in Albany
towards the adoption of knickerbockers
as regular business suit for everyday
wear and over $50 names have already
been enrolled toward the formation of
the Comfort Club, as it has been very
appropriately called.
PEMBROKE has secured 140 names and
as many dollars for advances in new
4S-inch Star which will be ratified off
Monday evening. There are at least
139 persons who are confident they will
win if. The writer of this would rather
see Joseph Wood ride it away than any,
body whom he now calls to mind.
CAPTAIN d. L. DAVIS, just returned
from Chicago, upon being asked: How
is wheeling? Replied with some en-
phasis. Wheeling? Why they, don't
know what road looks like. nor will
they for two months yet; the heaviest
snow-storm I've seen this winter oc-
Cured while l was in Chicago. Local
wheelmen will, perhaps. appreciate the
difference when they consider that we
have here at least eight months good
riding for crank machines, and twelve
months for Stars.

There is a request at National Headquarters
from Juneau, in Alaska, sent by sufficient
number of eX-soldiers who are eligible, TO es-
tablish Post in that Territory.
The Territory of Alaska win probably be
added TO the Department Of Washington Terri
tory, immediately upon which the Commander
OF that Department will issue charter TO
them.
Six Posts in Arizona ask TO be separated from
the Department of California and erected into
q Provisional Department The reasons set
forth by these Posts, many of them, are very
pertinent, and would seem TO justify such &C
ton. One of the Posts says, in giving reasons
"We are a thousand miles from Department
Headquarters, and the railroad fare TO and
from there is 500"
All the Posts claim in the strongest terms
that such a change would be for the interest Of
the Order.
